rant snipped

If you are not going to meet your credit obligations as they are
spelled out in the credit agreement, then keep your employees and
company running on the edge of insolvency & hoping that American
Express is going to give you a free ride, you're too foolish to won a
business.

AmEx is not there to help you with cash flow. They can, if they
choose, negotiate different payment patters with you, but they are not
a bank. You get to use the cards only when they feel you are
credit-worthy enough to pay them off. 

This is not an American Express problem. It is your business problem.
